Use hex encoding on VirtualBox pipe names

Browse Source 
This allows arbitrary characters in VirtualBox VM names, while also ensuring all different weird names can coexist.

Example of two VMs that previously couldn't both have a serial console - "VM 1" and "VM_1", because the former's pipe name is converted to the latter, while the latter would remain unchanged.
